I've just done some googling on the subject and came up with a few
interesting things.  You're right, he wasn't a big fan but there was
some weird stuff there:

"When Hitler attacked Poland, however, Gandhi suddenly endorsed the
Polish army's
military resistance, calling it "almost nonviolent." (If this sounds
like
double-talk, I can only urge readers to read Gandhi.) He seemed at
this point to
have a rather low opinion of Hitler, but when Germany's panzer
divisions turned
west, Allied armies collapsed under the ferocious onslaught, and
British ships
were streaming across the Straits of Dover from Dunkirk, he wrote
furiously to
the Viceroy of India: "This manslaughter must be stopped. You are
losing; if you
persist, it will only result in greater bloodshed. Hitler is not a
bad man...."

"Gandhi also wrote an open letter to the British people,
passionately urging them
to surrender and accept whatever fate Hitler' had prepared for
them. "Let them
take possession of your beautiful island with your many beautiful
buildings. You
will give all these, but neither your souls, nor your minds." Since
none of this
had the intended effect, Gandhi, the following year, addressed an
open letter to
the prince of darkness himself, Adolf Hitler."
